2013 ISPA Awards registration now open

The 15th ISPA Awards has expanded to cover fifteen different award
categories, and the window for firms enter is open until January 25th 2013.

"Since the first awards in 1999, the internet has changed beyond recognition
and our new categories reflect how The ISPAs have been at the forefront of this
ever changing industry. ISPA has been the voice of the internet industry since
the first days of dial-up, and the 15th awards allow us to celebrate the latest
technological achievements."

Nicholas Lansman, ISPA Secretary General

Once nominations close in January, the technical testing for the hosting and
broadband categories will take place over a period of three months, whittling
down the entrants to a shortlist from which the judges will pick the eventual
winner.

The Superfast Broadband category is new this year and is intended to reflect
the changing market and the rise of services offering speeds of 30 Mbps and
faster. The inclusion of a Fixed Wireless Broadband category also recognises
the way that fixed wireless is maturing and the plethora of providers in that
area.

There should be a WORST catagory so i can put forward VirginMedia for telling me my connection is heavily loaded at peak times, but not bad enough to fix, and continue to sell more connections in my local town center with stalls and cars in the street.

Maybe im mistaken but it seems you can only nominate your own company? Confusing form...

@joppy Yes at this time it is for the providers to nominate whether they want to be considered in the awards.

This ISPA thing isn't really fully representive on the internet industry most if not all of the smaller ISP's aren't included, because they probably don't see much point in paying to enter against the same mass market ISP's year on year, So these awards are only for the big six woopee do
